Keynote Speaker: Cultural Agility
Cultural Agility: Your Competitive Advantage In The Workplace
May 21st is the World Day Of Cultural Diversity. To celebrate the occasion, I partnered with the UK organization Powered By Diversity to deliver a Keynote on cultural agility to their members.The presentation focused on the crucial role cultural agility plays in the workplace, driving employee engagement, teamwork, innovation, and performance.✔️ Racially diverse teams report a 35% increase in performance compared to their competitors.✔️ 85% of companies with inclusion practices generated 30%+ in revenue.✔️ Diverse teams make better decisions up to 87% of the time.Cultural diversity is a catalyst for teamwork, innovation and performance.However, it requires an open mindset and cultural agility.In the session, I talked about:📍 Unconscious bias and specific biases relevant to cultural diversity (cultural bias, stereotypes, affinity bias)📍 Cultural mapping: personal stories and cultural failures from working in 20+ countries to explain how our culture shapes the way we lead, communicate, give feedback, make decisions and more.📍 A cultural toolkit to develop cultural agility: my own methodology to drive cultural inclusion in the workplace and beyond.The session had a total of 63 participants joining from different organizations.If you would like to discuss customized workshops or keynotes related to inclusion and growth mindset, please get in touch.About Powered by Diversity: financially accessible equity, diversity and inclusion.
